Exclusive Interview With The Rocket Summer’s Bryce Avary
by Ashley Iasimone Feb 24th 2010 at 3:30PM

…We sat down with Bryce, for a candid chat about his big day, some super famous fans, Nick Jonas and Taylor Lautner, guilty pleasures, and just how much his new music means to him.

We hear Nick Jonas is a big fan of your music.
He was really nice [when we met]. I kind of feel like it was some weird, fateful moment, just ’cause … when does that happen? Me and him — no one else — at the concession stand [at a movie theater]. I said, “You’re Nick Jonas, right?” and he was like, “Yeah.” I said, “I have this band called the Rocket Summer,” and he said, “Oh my gosh, I’m a big fan!” He hugged me, and he was like, “I’d love to work with you some time.” We exchanged numbers and texted a little bit. We don’t really talk too much, but it was cool. I was actually going to see ‘Twilight’ ['New Moon'], which was funny because pretty much the main reason I was going to see ‘Twilight’ was because Taylor Lautner is a big Rocket Summer fan, and he’s talked about it in interviews and stuff. So it was just this really surreal moment.

I’m sitting there talking to Nick Jonas, and then I’m going to see Taylor Lautner – this kind of younger generation of people that sort of at least like my music or something. I don’t know if I would say that it’s hugely influential or whatever – you’d have to ask them — but they do like it…
